500 for Lyon
Then 501Well done you geeky looking weirdo
Excellent effort. Not many have gotten the magical five hundy.
Easier nowadays for guys than in the past ( particularly if you play for Oz, England or India ) but you still have to go out there and get them.
Ashwin on 489 will join him soon enough ( really quickly if his next tests are scheduled for India cough cough )
Lyon’s record much more consistent no matter where he plays.
Pakistan predictably crumbling away from home, I can see a 3-0 drubbing coming up.

I'm pretty sure NZ hasn't played a test in Oz since 1985
NZ played a 3 test series in Australia in 2019/20
I have no memory of this. I think you may be hallucinating @Chris

hahah. We have to cop it.
Reality is they are better than we were. If we'd played them a year before, we would have really run them close - but with Smith and others back to prove a point, we just struggled to make the key breakthrough. Wags (and others) induced edges and spoons that just didn't go to hand in the first test ... and then they got away, we faced the pink ball, Ferguson got injured and the wheels fell off.
The mental toughness I see in the team just wasn't there against Aus. it's really weird - we have a mental block or something.

Yeah I agree that mental block v Australia is really evident.
It is talked about in Australian cricket circles how NZ are beaten before they play.We need to over come that to beat Australia consistently,it is a reverse of the Trans Ta$man Rugby rivalry
Frustrating as a kiwi. -
